[00:00:00] Second Class, Wait Here (1996 Digital Remaster) - Slim Dusty

[00:00:01] Written by：Slim Dusty/Henry Lawson

[00:00:08] At suburban railway stations you may see them as you pass

[00:00:13] There are signboards on the platform saying 'wait here second class'

[00:00:17] And to me the whirr and thunder and the cluck of running gear

[00:00:22] Seems to be forever saying saying 'second class wait here'

[00:00:28] Yes the second class were waiting in the days of serf and prince

[00:00:33] And the second class are waiting they've been waiting ever since

[00:00:37] There are gardens in the background and the line is dark and drear

[00:00:42] Yet they wait beneath a signboard sneering 'second class wait here'

[00:00:53] I have waited oft in winter in the morning dark and damp

[00:00:58] When the asphalt platform glistened underneath the lonely lamp

[00:01:03] And the wind among the poplars and the wires that thread the air

[00:01:07] Seemed to be for ever snarling snarling 'second class wait here'

[00:01:13] Out beyond a further suburb 'neath a chimney stack alone

[00:01:18] Lays the works of grinder brothers with a platform of their own

[00:01:22] As I waited there and suffered waited there for many a day

[00:01:27] Slaved beneath a phantom signboard telling all my hopes to stay

[00:01:38] Ah a man must feel revengeful for a boyhood such as mine

[00:01:43] God I hate the very houses near the workshop by the line

[00:01:48] And the smell of railway stations and the roar of running gear

[00:01:52] And the scornful seeming signboards saying 'second class wait here'

[00:01:58] There's a train with death the driver and it's ever going past

[00:02:02] There will be no class compartments when it all ahout at last

[00:02:07] To that long white jasper platform with an eden in the rear

[00:02:11] And there won't be any signboards saying 'second class wait here'

[00:02:17] Oh no there won't be any signboards saying 'second class wait here'
